	Purpose: Downloads and installs the latest available Microsoft
	product specified directly on the client. This avoids having to
	manually download and store an up-to-date installer on a
	distribution server every month.
	
	Instructions: Update the linkID value to one of the corresponding
	Microsoft products in the list and optionally update the sha256Checksum
	value with a known SHA 256 string. Run the script with elevated
	privileges. If using Jamf Pro, consider replacing the linkID and
	sha256Checksum values with "$4" and "$5", entering the ID as script
	parameters in a policy.
